SPECIFICATION forming` part of Letters Patent No. 274,521, dated March27, `1888,

` Application filed November 21, 1882.- {No model.)

To all whom it may conce-ru:

Beit known that I, ISAAC SCHNEER, of New' York, in the county and Stateof N ew York, have inventeda new and Improved Jacket or Blouse forChildren, of which the following is.

jacket or blouse of such construction that the lower part thereof, whichis the part below the waist, may be worn either outside ot or tuckedwithin the pantaloons.

Heretofore jackets or blouses, especially those intended for children,were provided with buttons around the waist, so that the waistband ofthe pantaloons could be buttoned thereto and the lower suspended fromthe upper garment. The lap or lowerpart of the blouse had to be tuckedinto the pantaloons.

My invention consists in providing the waist of the jacket orblouse-With button-holes -in lieu of the buttons heretofore employed,thereby adapting it for use with a belly-band having buttons, all ashereinafter more fully described. In the drawings, the letter Arepresents a blouse or jacket. ais its waistband, having series ofbutton-holes.l b is its l'ap or lower portion. B represents a pair ofpantaloons, whose waistband d also has buttomholes that are aligned withthe button-holes in the waistband a.

Gis abelly-strap, held on the hips of the wearer or suspended `from theshoulders by suitable shoulder-straps or Suspenders. This strap isbuckled around the body underneath ythe pantaloons and jacket, and has aseries of buttons or equivalent'fasteners, e e, fastened to its outerside, which are aligned with the button-holesin the waistbands a and d.

If the lap l of the jacket is to be worn outside or over the pantaloons,as in Fig. 1, the pantaloons are simply buttoned to. the bellyband, asshown in Fig. 3. lf the lap-b is to be worn tucked int-o thepantaloons,as in Fig. 2, the waistband a is first bnttoned to the bellyband, andafterward the pantaloons are fastened to the same buttons, as in Fig. 4.In the latter case, if it is desired to conceal the buttons from view,an outer belt, D, may be eniployed for that purpose.

The garment A can be washed and ironed without difficulty. Thoseheretofore used frequently carne out of the laundry with broken buttonsor with the loss of buttons.

The invention can be used by children as well as by grown persons.

I claim- 1. The jacket or blouse A, provided along the waist withperforations a, and 'below the waist with lower lap, b, substantially asherein shown and described.

2. The jacket A, having perforated waistband a and lap b, in combinationwith pantaloons B, having perforated waistband d, and ,With belly-strapC, having buttons e, substantially as herein shown and described.
